734 MARYLAND MANUAL [Art. 4
ber 1, 1960, there shall be not less than five judges resident
in Montgomery County.
Nothwithstanding any other provision of this Article the
vacancy in Montgomery County created by the adoption of
this amendment shall not be filled by appointment as pro-
vided in Section 5 of this Article, but at the first biennial
general election for Representatives in Congress, after the
adoption of this amendement a judge shall be elected by the
qualified voters of Montgomery County to fill such vacancy
in such county. Any other vacancy in the office of Judge of
the Circuit Court for Montgomery County and any vacancy
in the second judicial circuit shall be filled as provided in
Sections 3 and 5 of this Article, except that the person
initially appointed to fill the vacancy in the second judicial
circuit shall be a resident of Kent County.
The said judges shall hold such terms of the Circuit Court
in each of the counties composing their respective circuits,
at such times as are now prescribed or may hereafter be
prescribed by rules or regulations by the Court of Appeals
or otherwise by law. One judge in each of the first seven
circuits shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of any
business; and the said judges, or any of them, may hold
special terms of their Courts, when in their discretion, the
business of the several counties renders such terms neces-
sary.
All provisions of the Constitution of Maryland and all
Acts of the General Assembly relating to the Court of Ap-
peals or any other courts, and all rules heretofore adopted
by the Court of Appeals, not inconsistent with the provisions
of the sections amended or added by this amendment, shall
remain in full force and effect unless and until amended or
repealed by proper authority. All salaries now prescribed
by law for associate judges of the Circuit Courts shall
continue to apply to all judges (including chief judges) of
the Circuit Court. No member of the General Assembly at
which either of these amendments was proposed, or at
which the number or salary of judges for any of the eight
circuits or for any of the counties may or may have been
increased or decreased by the General Assembly from time
to time, if otherwise qualified, shall be ineligible for appoint-
ment or election as judge of the Court of Appeals or any
other court by reason of his membership in such General
Assembly.
In the event and to the extent of any inconsistency be-
tween the provisions of any section amended or added by
